FAQ

No. Brushing at least twice a day is recommended, also to regularly renew the fluoride protective layer.

After highly acidic foods or drinks, it is better to wait about 30 minutes.

No. Bristles that are too hard or too much pressure can strain the gums and tooth enamel.

Yes. They usually enable particularly thorough yet gentle cleaning.

Biofilms can mature especially easily there and remain undisturbed for longer.

Tooth enamel is the outer visible surface of the teeth and the hardest substance in the human body. It consists predominantly of hydroxyapatite and protects the teeth from acids, stress, and sensitive stimuli.

No. Tooth enamel cannot be biologically regenerated. However, early damage and mineral loss can be stabilized and partially repaired through remineralization.

“Liquid enamel” refers to sub-microscopic hydroxyapatite – ultra-fine mineral particles that attach to the tooth surface, fill in micro-defects, and can support remineralization.

Hydroxyapatite is the natural main component of tooth enamel. Modern dental care uses medical-grade hydroxyapatite in a particularly fine form for biomimetic surface repair.

Remineralization refers to the natural redeposition of minerals into tooth enamel. Saliva, fluoride, and hydroxyapatite support this lifelong process.

Fluoride supports remineralization and, together with calcium from saliva, forms a protective calcium fluoride layer on the tooth surface. This makes teeth more resistant to acids.

In the recommended amounts, fluoride is considered safe according to current scientific evidence. The correct dosage and local application via toothpaste are decisive.

Regular application is more important than the exact form of fluoride. Sodium fluoride, amine fluoride, and stannous fluoride are all well studied scientifically and support remineralization.

Fluoride supports the protective layer and remineralization. Liquid enamel can additionally fill in micro-defects, smooth the surface, and stabilize sensitive areas.

Acid erosion is the loss of minerals from tooth enamel caused by acids from food, drinks, or stomach acid. This makes the tooth surface thinner, more sensitive, and rougher.

Teeth grinding is often caused by stress and inner tension. Abrasion is additionally caused by mechanical strain such as vigorous scrubbing or abrasive dental care products.

What matters most is minimizing acid exposure, good saliva production, fluoride-containing dental care, gentle biofilm control, and modern repair products with hydroxyapatite.

Deposits and plaque adhere less easily to smooth surfaces. At the same time, smooth teeth reflect light more evenly, making them appear shinier and naturally brighter.

Yes. Sub-microscopic hydroxyapatite can stabilize sensitive areas and calm open dentin tubules.

Early white spots can often be stabilized and visually improved if the surface is still intact and targeted remineralization is carried out.

Saliva supplies the minerals for natural remineralization. In cases of dry mouth, regeneration of the tooth surface is often significantly limited.

Sub-microscopic hydroxyapatite particles can quickly attach to the tooth surface, smooth out roughness, and improve light reflection – the typical “ApaCare Glow” feeling.

No. It refers to medical-grade hydroxyapatite – a mineral that is structurally very similar to natural tooth enamel.

It can remineralize microscopically small defects and strengthen the surface. Larger damage still requires dental treatment.

Yes. Thanks to the smoother surface, teeth reflect light better and appear naturally brighter and shinier.

Tooth color results mainly from the interplay of dentin color, enamel thickness, mineralization, and light reflection of the tooth surface.

Everyone has tooth surfaces of different thickness, transparency, and mineralization. Smoother, more light-reflective surfaces often appear lighter.

As we age, tooth enamel often becomes thinner and more transparent. At the same time, more stains and deposits accumulate.

Yes. Color pigments from coffee, tea, red wine, or nicotine can adhere especially easily to rougher tooth surfaces.

Intrinsic discoloration occurs inside the tooth, for example due to tetracyclines, dead teeth, trauma, or root canal fillings.

No. Surface stains usually respond better to whitening than deep intrinsic discoloration.

Smooth tooth surfaces reflect light more evenly. This makes teeth appear shinier, cleaner, and often lighter.

Whitening agents such as hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide alter protein structures and the way light is transmitted in the tooth. At the same time, temporary microscopic pores and structural changes occur in the enamel.

The temporary micropores and structural changes can increase stimulus transmission. As a result, some teeth react more sensitively to cold or air.

The result usually lasts from months to a few years – depending on diet, smoking, deposits, and oral hygiene.

Over time, the surfaces remineralize again, protein structures partially regenerate, and new pigments accumulate.

In internal whitening (“walking bleach”), the whitening agent is placed inside a root-treated tooth to lighten intrinsic discoloration.

Yes. Gentle polishing, remineralization, and repair products with liquid enamel can improve light reflection and make teeth appear naturally brighter.

Hydroxyapatite can compensate for micro-defects, smooth the surface, support remineralization, and improve natural light reflection.

Sub-microscopic hydroxyapatite particles can quickly attach to the tooth surface, smooth out roughness, and improve light reflection – the typical “ApaCare Glow” feeling.

Yes. Unlike aggressive whitening, biomimetic repair concepts are designed for regular, long-term use.

Well-mineralized tooth surfaces are smoother, more resistant, and reflect light more evenly. This makes teeth appear naturally brighter.

Tooth decay develops when bacteria convert sugar into acids that attack the enamel and dissolve minerals out of the tooth.

In addition to dental care, oral flora, diet, saliva flow, and individual predisposition also play an important role.

Early tooth decay is often revealed by white spots, rough patches, or increased tooth sensitivity.

Early enamel damage can be strengthened again through remineralization with minerals.

Saliva neutralizes acids, supplies minerals, and supports the natural cleaning of teeth.

Sugar promotes a dysbiosis of the oral flora in which acid-producing bacteria multiply, which can lead to tooth decay, inflammation, and damage to the enamel.

Plaque is a soft bacterial film that, without thorough cleaning, can harden into tartar.

A healthy oral flora keeps harmful bacteria in balance and protects against tooth decay and inflammation.

White spots that are detected early can often be improved both visually and structurally through intensive remineralization.

Regular dental care, a low-sugar diet, and strengthening the enamel and oral flora offer the best protection.

Deposits and food residue often remain in the narrow spaces between teeth, which can promote tooth decay.

Too little saliva weakens the mouth’s natural protective function and increases the risk of tooth decay and dysbiosis.

Mineral-rich foods, plenty of vegetables, and a diet rich in calcium and protein can strengthen teeth and oral flora.

Constant eating leads to repeated acid attacks and prevents the enamel from regenerating sufficiently.

The oral microbiome affects not only teeth and gums but is also connected to the immune system and overall health.

Tartar promotes bacterial adhesion and can encourage gum inflammation as well as periodontitis.

Large salivary glands open there, and their mineral-rich saliva can promote tartar formation.

Tartar that has already hardened should be removed professionally to avoid damage to the gums and enamel.

A disrupted biofilm with increased plaque maturation can significantly speed up the formation of tartar.

Yes, smoother and remineralized tooth surfaces make it harder for plaque and biofilm to adhere.

Dentin tubules – also called tubuli – are microscopically fine channels in exposed dentin that contain fluid and are directly connected to the tooth nerve.

Sealing open dentin tubules in exposed dentin can reduce fluid movement and significantly relieve pain.

Cold stimuli trigger fluid movement in the open dentin tubules of exposed dentin, which irritates the tooth nerve.

Exposed tooth necks occur when the gums recede and sensitive dentin becomes visible.

Exposed dentin is unprotected tooth bone with open dentin tubules that reacts especially sensitively to external stimuli.

Sensitive tooth necks often develop due to receding gums, acids, teeth grinding, or abrasion of the enamel.

Sweet stimuli can trigger fluid movement in the open dentin tubules of exposed dentin.

Exposed dentin can be stabilized through remineralization and the lasting sealing of open dentin tubules.

Liquid enamel can deposit into open dentin tubules and microscopic defects of exposed dentin.

Brushing too hard, a thin gingival phenotype, orthodontic treatment, or inflammatory gum recession can expose the tooth necks.

Exposed dentin has thousands of open dentin tubules that are directly connected to the tooth nerve.

An acid-producing dysbiosis can additionally attack exposed dentin and increase sensitivity.

Gentle oral care, remineralization, and stabilizing exposed dentin support long-term protection.

The tooth varnish forms a protective matrix on exposed dentin and continuously releases liquid enamel.

Touch can trigger fluid movement in the open dentin tubules of exposed dentin.

Long-term protection means the lasting stabilization of exposed dentin and the permanent sealing of open dentin tubules.

Chalky teeth are a mineralization disorder of the enamel in which the teeth are porous, sensitive, and less stable.

Typical signs are white, yellowish, or brown spots as well as sensitive or crumbling tooth surfaces.

White spots usually form due to mineral loss in the enamel or disrupted enamel maturation.

White spots can be early demineralizations and thus precursors of tooth decay.

Porous enamel often results from hypomineralization or disrupted enamel formation.

In this condition, the enamel contains too few minerals and becomes softer and more sensitive as a result.

In cases of chalky teeth or severe mineralization disorders, the unstable enamel can break off more easily.

Early remineralization with fluoride and liquid enamel can help stabilize sensitive areas.

Microscopically small defects can be stabilized and partially filled in through remineralization with liquid enamel.

Plaque and acids can accumulate more easily around brackets, which leads to white spots.

Chalky teeth increase the risk of pain, tooth decay, and loss of tooth structure and should be treated early.

Typical signs are dull, chalky, blotchy, or yellow-brown changes on the tooth surface.

Gentle care, tooth varnishes, and biomimetic remineralization can protect sensitive areas.

The porous enamel provides less protection for the underlying dentin against external stimuli.

Hydroxyapatite can help stabilize porous areas and visually harmonize the tooth surface.

What was previously regarded primarily as daily protection against tooth decay is now taking on a whole new significance thanks to new scientific findings. This is because children’s toothpaste accompanies a child precisely during that sensitive phase of life in which the oral microbiome, the immune system and taste preferences are developing.

This gives rise to a new set of requirements for modern children’s dental care: it should not only reliably protect milk teeth, but also take the natural oral flora into account, care for sensitive mucous membranes and support balanced taste development through deliberately mild flavour stimuli.

Choosing the right children’s toothpaste gives parents the opportunity to easily incorporate the latest insights into early childhood development into their daily routine. It is crucial to adopt a care routine that goes beyond traditional protection against tooth decay and addresses the specific needs of this sensitive stage of life.

The recommendation is therefore: a children’s toothpaste that combines proven tooth protection with microbiome-focused care, support for the sensitive oral mucosa and a deliberately moderate level of sweetness. This turns an already necessary daily routine into a valuable contribution to developmentally conscious oral care – without any extra effort.

During the first few years of life, a child’s microbiome develops particularly rapidly. Microbial colonisation begins intensively at birth and is subsequently influenced by diet, breastfeeding, contact with family members and the environment.

At the same time, the immune system matures. Microorganisms and their metabolic products contribute to the development of immune regulation and natural protective barriers. The early development of the microbiome is therefore also being investigated in relation to later-life allergies, metabolic disorders and immune-mediated diseases.

The microbiome remains malleable throughout life. However, early childhood represents a particularly sensitive phase of development.

The mother influences her child’s development even during pregnancy through her diet, metabolic products and immunological factors.

At birth, the child comes into close contact with microorganisms. During a vaginal birth, maternal microorganisms, amongst other things, are transferred. Subsequently, breastfeeding, skin-to-skin contact and the family environment contribute significantly to the development of the child’s microbiome.

The mother is therefore an important early source of microbial and immunological influences. Other caregivers and environmental contacts also play a significant role.

Prebiotics and postbiotics leverage natural biological mechanisms that also play an important role in a healthy oral microbiome. Rather than relying on aggressive antibacterial agents, this approach works in harmony with nature to support microbial balance.

Prebiotics are specific natural nutrients—such as plant-based fibers like inulin from chicory root or certain naturally occurring carbohydrates—that provide a growth advantage to health-promoting microorganisms, thereby fostering a balanced oral flora.

Postbiotics consist of natural components and biologically active substances derived from the activity of beneficial microorganisms, such as lactic acid bacteria. These same biological principles are found in the natural fermentation of foods like yogurt or sauerkraut. Through natural signaling mechanisms, they can influence the microbial environment and help stabilize its balance.

ApaCare Kids combines both approaches to support the natural development of a healthy oral microbiome during the earliest years of life. The goal is not to combat the oral flora, but rather to bolster natural protective and regulatory mechanisms and provide favorable conditions for health-promoting microorganisms to thrive.

Flavour learning describes the process of acquiring taste and flavour preferences through repeated experiences.

This process begins even before birth. Flavour compounds from the mother’s diet can be detected via the amniotic fluid. Later on, breast milk, complementary foods and shared meals shape the development of taste.

Taste experiences are also processed emotionally. What is experienced as familiar and positive is often preferred later on. Such preferences acquired at an early age can influence eating habits for many years.

Children have a natural preference for sweet things. Frequent, intense exposure to sweet stimuli can further reinforce this preference.

When it comes to shaping taste preferences, it is not solely a question of whether the sweetness comes from sugar, xylitol or other sweeteners. The intensity and frequency of the sweet taste experience are also relevant.

A regular emotional association between sweet tastes and comfort or reward can be particularly problematic.

A varied diet and a moderate intake of sweet stimuli can help children develop a diverse range of taste preferences.

Children’s toothpaste is used daily from the moment the first milk tooth appears and is therefore one of the regularly recurring taste experiences.

Many conventional children’s toothpastes have a distinctly sweet flavour to make brushing teeth more pleasant. From the perspective of flavour learning, it makes sense to consciously design these taste stimuli as well.

ApaCare Kids therefore relies on a mildly balanced formula with reduced sweetness. The toothpaste contains xylitol, but does not use sweetness as a dominant flavour characteristic.

A pleasantly subtle flavour is intended to support daily oral care without additionally appealing to a strong preference for sweetness. However, the long-term influence of this particular toothpaste on future eating habits has not yet been clinically proven.

Shortly after birth, microorganisms colonise the oral mucosa and the tongue. As the milk teeth erupt, additional surfaces are created on which more complex bacterial biofilms can develop.

The oral microbiome changes in response to saliva, diet, tooth eruption, oral hygiene and local immune defences.

A balanced oral flora is an integral part of natural oral health. Frequent exposure to sugar and inadequate biofilm control, on the other hand, can favour acid-producing microorganisms.

The aim of modern paediatric dental care is therefore not the complete elimination of all bacteria, but rather the control of harmful biofilms whilst taking the natural microbial balance into account.

Children’s oral mucosa requires particularly gentle care. It forms an important natural barrier against mechanical irritants, microorganisms and environmental influences.

Hyaluronic acid is a natural component of human connective tissue. It binds large amounts of water and contributes to the tissue’s moisture and structure.

As an ingredient in ApaCare Kids, it helps to care for and moisturise the sensitive oral mucosa. It can help to create a pleasant sensation in the mouth and adds an extra layer of care to the standard dental cleaning routine.

Baby teeth have comparatively thin enamel. As a result, tooth decay can progress more quickly than in permanent teeth.

Fluoride supports remineralisation and increases the enamel’s resistance to acid attacks. It is one of the most thoroughly researched active ingredients in the prevention of tooth decay.

Medical-grade hydroxyapatite, also known as ‘liquid enamel’, can complement the care and remineralisation of the tooth surface.

ApaCare Kids combines both active ingredients to provide daily protection for milk teeth.

From the moment the first milk tooth appears, it is recommended to brush teeth twice daily using a fluoride toothpaste in an age-appropriate amount. For a fluoride concentration of 1,000 ppm, the recommended amount is usually a rice-grain-sized amount up to the child’s second birthday, and a pea-sized amount from the second to the sixth birthday. Individual fluoride intake should be taken into account.

ApaCare Kids combines traditional dental caries prevention with the latest findings from microbiome research, oral mucosa care and early childhood taste development.

The formula combines fluoride and pharmaceutical-grade hydroxyapatite to protect tooth enamel, prebiotic and postbiotic components for a microbiome-focused care approach, and hyaluronic acid for the sensitive oral mucosa.

It also features a deliberately mild flavour with a subtle level of sweetness. Xylitol is an ingredient in the formula, though it is not intended to impart a distinctly sweet taste.

In this way, ApaCare Kids enhances children’s daily dental care with additional biological and development-oriented aspects.

The basic idea: to make the most of the early years of life without complicating everyday life.
